Chapter 49: Succession to the Boss
At 5 o'clock in the morning, the sky was slightly bright, the ghost market dispersed, everyone talked to each other and said goodbye, and left the teahouse with their contact information.
Walking on the road, Zeng gently asked:
"Senior brother, this thing didn't get out, did the master trial fail?"
"Ugh." Lotte sighed and said, "Maybe! Let's go back first. ”
The two returned to the courtyard, Uncle Li Liuzhi was sitting on the Taishi chair with his eyes closed, and Lotte entered the house holding the box containing the snuff box with both hands, and said respectfully:
"Uncle Shi, I failed."
Li Liuzhi opened his eyes and said with a kind face:
"Tell me why you failed."
Zeng Wen hurriedly helped, "Master, you can't blame the junior brother for this, who knows that I met several acquaintances in the ghost market, and they all know Lotte, didn't you say that Shunsheng is not familiar, and people who know us still start, isn't this waiting to show up?" ”
Li Liuzhi glanced at Zeng Gentle indifferently, and said solemnly:
"Let Lotte say."
Lotte put down the wooden box in his hand, and without explanation, he said, "I disappointed Uncle Shi." ”
Hearing this, Li Liuzhi finally couldn't hold back, and said with a kind smile:
"Lao He doesn't recognize his six relatives in this line, no matter who should start, he can't give up his goal just because he knows, which is also the reason why Lao He is hated by the world."
Li Liuzhi stood up on crutches, looked at Lotte solemnly and continued:
"However, Yanzimen is a thief who robs the rich and helps the poor, and he can't be in the same league as the thieves in the world, and the head of the house must play a leading role."
Li Liuzhi opened the wooden box, looked at the two snuff bottles inside and asked:
"Do you know this thing, why is there a replica and a genuine thing?"
"I don't know." Lotte and Zeng gently shook their heads in unison.
"As we all know, during the Republic of China, there was a disobedient man in Yanzimen, his name was Yanzi Li San, when he first debuted, his actions were indeed a thief, but later, he couldn't bear the temptation and degenerated to the extent of treason and glory."
"At that time, after the ancestor cleaned up the portal, he got this snuff bottle, carefully carved out a fake imitation, and warned the heir that in the future, the head of the family will choose people, and they will go through a trial, if you sell this thing today, then not only will you not inherit it, but you will be cleaned up the portal."
As soon as these words came out, Zeng Wenrou behind him was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat, and blurted out:
"Why, master?"
Li Liuzhi explained with emotion: "This is a test to see if you can be worthy of your conscience." ”
Lotte understood, but he was also scared into a cold sweat, he didn't know the true meaning of the assessment, and he didn't think about it so much before, fortunately, he didn't shoot things today, otherwise it would be really bad.
While Lotte was thinking, Li Liuzhi suddenly said:
"Kneel down and salute."
Le Tianxia knelt down subconsciously and performed the etiquette of worshipping the teacher, and Zeng Wenwen, who was on the side, was stunned for a few seconds, and also knelt down.
Li Liuzhi hit Lotte on the head with a crutch and said:
"One precept, forbid what you have learned for your own benefit."
"Two precepts, prohibit what you have learned and endanger people's livelihood."
"The three precepts are forbidden to deceive others and lead them astray."
After the three sticks were beaten, Lotte kowtowed respectfully and said, "The disciple knows the three precepts by heart." ”
Li Liuzhi smiled kindly, put down his crutches, and with a hand, another wooden box appeared in the palm of his hand, and said:
"Although the swallow gate is lonely, the inheritance is still there, this thing is a token of the master, and it will be taught to you today."
Lotte took the wooden box, and when he opened it, there were three silver knives inside, the first one was called the finger knife, which was similar in size to the blade of a shaving beard, but the workmanship was completely different, this finger knife was much more delicate, and it was extremely sharp with a cold light.
The second one is smaller than the finger knife, only the size of a knuckle, and it looks thin and sharp, giving people an extremely sharp feeling, this knife is a knife in the mouth, as the name suggests, it is a blade hidden in the mouth.
The third one is similar in size to nail clippers, and completely different from the first two, because this one is a cuboid that looks like a carved iron block, which can only be seen in the hand, and there are many slender wires in this iron block, and the workmanship is extremely similar to the Swiss Army knife.
But this has a big history, its name is the universal knife, also called the master key, there are a total of 5 steel wires in it, which can open all the locks in the world, this thing only existed before the Republic of China, because of the fine workmanship, and now they have disappeared.
Zeng Wen Wen stepped forward to observe for some reason, and asked with a look of incomprehension:
"Master, this is what the head inherits?"
"You know what." Li Liuzhi glared at Zeng Gentle, and said to Lotte: "You should know the role of these three knives, keep them." ”
"Thank you, uncle." After the Lotte salute, place the wooden box on your body.
Li Liuzhi pointed to his wrinkled hand, patted the wooden box of the snuff box beside him, and said: "This thing is also for you, the times have changed, and you may not need to use this thing in the future, so you can dispose of it." ”
Lotte saluted again and said, "I will definitely collect it." ”
Li Liuzhi asked Lotte to stand up, and patted Lotte on the shoulder with a smile, "Lotte, you are the best child I have ever seen, you will inherit the head in the future, don't go astray." ”
"Got it, uncle." Lotte hurriedly responded.
"That's right." Li Liuzhi remembered something, reached into his arms, took out a stack of documents, handed them to Lotte and said:
"These things are real estate deeds and land deeds, and this yard will be yours in the future."
"This ......"
Holding the real estate certificate, Lotte suddenly couldn't, looked at Li Liuzhi blankly and asked, "Uncle Shi, what are you doing?" ”
Li Liuzhi waved his hand again and again and said: "Listen to me, this courtyard is left by the ancestors, not mine, the root of our swallow gate is here, you are the head, this thing must be given to you." ”
Zeng gently came up and said with envy: "Senior brother, you have made a fortune, congratulations!" ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Lotte hurriedly responded, Li Liuzhi looked at Zeng Gentle and said dissatisfiedly: "Girl, I have to tell you that Lotte will be in charge in the future, you can't talk without big or small, the rules can't be messed up, and Lotte, I want to tell you a few more words, gentle This child is good, I'm old, I can't stand her, in the future, you have to take care of her more, don't let her do anything wrong." ”
"Definitely." Lotte agreed, but Zeng Wenwen blushed and stopped talking.
After that, the three chatted a few more words, but because they didn't sleep all night, Li Liuzhi was old and frail and couldn't stand the toss, so he said goodbye and went back to the house to sleep.
Today is the weekend, the school is not in class, but Lotte is determined to go back to school, Zeng Wenrou had to send Lotte back, of course, except for the three knives, Lotte didn't take anything else, and it was still in the courtyard.
On the way, the two were quite quiet, and in order to alleviate the embarrassment, Lotte asked:
"Senior sister, what are your plans for the future?"
"Bastard, wait until you get your graduation certificate, set up a stall in the market during this time, and earn some living expenses first." Zeng said gently.
Lotte is also a poor man, and he can't do anything about Zeng Wenwen, the atmosphere was quiet again for a long time, Zeng Wenrou suddenly asked:
"By the way, junior brother, what is the token of the head that the master gave you, tell me."
Lotte took out three knives and explained: "You don't need to explain the finger seam knife, you have also used it, it was changed with a blade, but this one is different, it is made of cold iron, sharp and durable, indestructible, and can be broken by blowing." ”
Zeng Wen looked curiously while driving, and his eyes were full of envy.
"You know the knife in the mouth, this one has the same function as the finger knife, but the shape and hiding position are different."
"Yes." Zeng said gently: "I'm only curious about what the third thing is, nail clippers?" ”
Lotte smiled, took out the master key and said: "This thing is amazing, it is called the master knife, there are 5 kinds of master keys in it, which can open all the locks in the world." ”
Zeng gently retorted: "You just blow it, now it's all electronic locks, I don't believe this old antique can be opened." ”
"Uh......" Lotte whispered, but still played with the master key, looking at every tightrope.
When the car arrived at the graduate school of Chinese medicine, Zeng said with gentle emotion:
"Senior brother of the master, we have arrived, first of all, congratulations on getting the master, call me in the future, remember to call me if there is anything."
"Definitely."
Lotte got in the car, watching Zeng Gentle drive away, Lotte had to shake his head and leave, to be honest, Zeng Gentle was a little inexplicable today, and it felt like he was jealous, but after all, it was Lotte who inherited the head, and Zeng Gentle was jealous and a little envious.
Ignore these, go back to the bedroom, only Shi Dashan is reading in bed, seeing Lotte coming back, he hurriedly came over to ask about something, roughly asking what happened after Lotte was taken away after drinking that day.
After talking, Lotte also knew what happened after drinking too much that day, and he didn't bother about it, he planned to sleep first, and when Lotte woke up, it was afternoon, and he was called up by Shi Dashan.
"Hey, don't sleep."
"What's wrong?" Rakuten inquires.
"At the orientation meeting this afternoon, Guan Liang has a show, don't sleep, hurry up and pack up and watch the show."
Lotte was helplessly pulled up, after a simple wash, followed Shi Dashan out of the bedroom building, along the way Shi Dashan was not idle, said a lot of things about classes, roughly the class schedule, what classes are there tomorrow and so on.
When they came to the door of the venue, there were a few people smoking at the door, led by Bi Yuntao, who saw that Lotte was coming, and they all looked at Lotte with bad intentions, but when the two were about to walk by, Bi Yuntao shouted in the back: "Hi, poor boy." ”
Lotte looked back at Bi Yuntao, Bi Yuntao spit out a smoke ring and said:
"If the toad wants to eat swan meat, he doesn't weigh it, Sister Yunfang, you dare to get involved, you kid is really looking for death, but no one is stopping you."
"Sick." Lotte spat a word and was about to leave.
Bi Yuntao's face suddenly darkened, "Stop." ”
Lotte stood still, turned his head to look at him coldly, Bi Yuntao stepped forward angrily, stood in front of Lotte, a puff of smoke sprayed on Lotte's face, and said defiantly:
"We're not done yet! Don't think that if someone covers you, you can do whatever you want, you wait for me, and the battle between the two of us will be calculated slowly. ”
